The one in my pic is most likely a big-block car. The guy builds/restores muscle cars and hot rods. It was probably bought out of grandpa's barn for the drivetrain.

For several years in my teens, the fastest car in town was an old (older than the one in my pic) LTD, big block, straight pipes, and, in a time when cars were being jacked up in the rear to allow for bigger tires, this one sat level and low, and was insanely quick.

It had "The Boss" painted on both rear quarter panels. And it was.

Brembo carbon ceramic rotors with aluminum 6-piston monobloc fixed front calipers; aluminum 4-piston monobloc fixed rear calipers. Half the reason it cost money to go fast.

An apparently 2 wheel drive 2015 GMC Sierra makes it up the Kamloops WidowMaker Hill:



That seems to be pretty hardcore.

It's not power, but momentum and reaction that makes it. I wonder if he had ballast in the bed?
